Proper shock adjustment

Recommended Posts

Ok, I think I have been thinking about this too much or something, but I have a re-built stocker on the rear of the shee. It works alright but I feel like on bigger jumps it still bottoms out way to easiely.

 

So there is two options to adjust it, turn the rings clockwise and it compresses the spring which in turn will make it stiffer but not have as much travel.

 

Or turn it the other way and have more travel but the spring can compress easier.

 

Im sure there is more to it then this, but Im wondering how others set theirs up.

 

thanks

I'd say pick up a stiffer spring. The preload is good for what it's designed for, but that's not compensating for too light of a shock.

 

and FYI: you can compress the spring without negatively affecting the travel. I don't know how much though.
